I'm sure that many players do discuss it with the coach. But they don't have to see the coach or talk to the coach to enter the portal. That, by rule, is handled by the school's director of compliance. That is the only person a prospective transferee needs to contact.
Right. Cannot sign until early November. And your wager would be a good one, since NCAA rules prohibit him from commenting on anyone who has not signed.
One thing to keep in mind is that many players who go into the portal are not scholarship players at their current school. Also many of them are graduating next month and are simply looking for a school to fund a graduate degree. If those players don’t find a spot, it is certainly not the end of...
One issue is that college players are normally measured with basketball shoes on. The NBA did away with that practice a few years ago, and now players are required to be measured in bare feet. That can make a difference of up to one and a half inches.
There is no minimum roster limit in the NCAA tournament.
The general rules, which apply to the regular season as well as to the tournament, say that you must have five players at the start of a game. But you are allowed to go down to as few as two during the game. Even one under certain...
If it had turned out she contributed this coming year, that would have meant another year with a ton of serious injuries. Otherwise she was lined up to be 14th or 15th in the rotation.
One big issue with the above is that the rules are not adjucated exactly as they are written. As Geno pointed out, there may be 40+ illegal screens that are not called in any given game. If there was a review, they would not overturn a borderline illegal screen call if it was illegal under...
It is certainly somewhat impressive, but there are not thousands of schools who could possibly be in the running for a so-called national championship. Montverde aggressively recruits players from all over the country, who usually are given full rides. Add in their location near Orlando...
It’s hard to compare a center to a SG. I have seen Weimar play numerous times. She probably would help a little bit, but certainly would not be any kind of difference maker at this level.
If a recruited player is receiving any scholarship money of any kind, then they count against the 15 – scholarship limit.
It doesn’t matter if they are receiving academic scholarships, need-based scholarships, athletic scholarships, or some kind of special scholarship. It’s all the same when a...
It's very common in basketball as well. The majority of teams have lots of contingent offers out there. For example, there are literally hundreds of offers that go out to very tall HS freshmen. Over 90% of those offers can't be accepted until a couple of years later. Often after the...
I would pass. For her size, she is a poor rebounder. Much worse than Griffin, worse than Ice Brady, even worse than Deberry, although that obviously is a small sample size.
Actually it would be no penalty for fouls 7 and 8. If there are 9 fouls, that means one quarter has to have at least 5 fouls and thus lead to FT's. Also note that fouls 7, 8, and 9 in the men's game only lead to one-and-one situations, while excessive women's fouls immediately lead to two FT's.
That ACL timeline is when there are complications or where the rehab is very conservative. Many players return from basic ACL surgery in 8-9 months, some sooner. Jessica Moore was playing again in less than 7 months. I know many soccer and basketball players who have been playing in 6...
Under the rules, an academic scholarship would count exactly the same way as a basketball scholarship. You can’t circumvent the scholarship limit by giving out academic scholarships, or need based scholarships, etc.
If Caroline is ever going to be able to play again, she likely should be available for games next November. As for Azzi, if there are no unusual complications, she likely should be available by then. By the opening game, it will be almost a year since her surgery. The majority of players with...
